The end of 1535 was a year of overwhelming information about the inhabitants of Istanbul. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

First of all, the honorable Prince Mustafa and his mother Sultan Mystra went to the province of Egypt to hold an unprecedented sacrifice for the Lord of the Stars and Moon, which made the citizens of Istanbul very unhappy, the great sacrifice itself meant a lot of free food and casual humiliation of the infidels, not to mention the various business opportunities that the merchants were looking forward to, all kinds of materials and manpower needed to be fed up, and a large number of slaves to be chopped up, even the citizens were expecting people from afar to need accommodation, so that they could take the opportunity to slaughter the countrymen.

So at the beginning, most of the residents of Istanbul were very dissatisfied with this sacrifice, and some even said indignantly, the governors of the provinces held a summary meeting, and the whole city was imposed martial law to toss us Istanbulese, how could the sacrifice with the people not think of us, but to go to the cheap and lowly Egyptian countrymen, people said that the eldest prince is good, but his old lady is really not our Lord of the stars and moon, this heart is really treacherous.

Ankara, Damascus, Mecca, of course, are similar ideas, they can't figure out how their own noble city did not reap the benefits, but the good things were given to the Egyptians, who had just been included in Ottoman rule for only twenty years? Although Mecca was ruled by the Uthmans for about the same time as Egypt, it was after all a place where the "messengers" attained enlightenment, and it was naturally noble.

A few days later, the day before the sacrifice, there was new news that the Egyptian villagers and those slaves were going to be chopped up together and sacrificed to the Lord of the Stars and Moon, of course, the atmosphere changed immediately, and everyone learned that it was the Sultan of Xurem and Prince Selim who fought hard to arrange this matter to go to Egypt.

Although some of Mustafa's faction were aware of the crisis from the rumors, they were not sure that this was Suleiman's precursor to the Prince's faction, and that it was Sultan Hurem who was damaging the Prince's reputation, and until the last moment, they did not realize that Suleiman's knife had reached their neck.

On the day of the autumn equinox, the last hole cards were turned over, and when all the subjects of the Ottoman Empire were doing the Xingyue Gong, they heard a special proclamation, the eldest prince Mustafa was seduced by his mother, weaving a cabal, and finally degenerated and committed the great crime of colluding with the infidels and trying to kill his father.

Of course, they feel a little sorry for the Grand Vizier Ibrahim is also a member of the cabal, although everyone thinks that the Grand Vizier is indeed too famous on weekdays, especially many grassroots bureaucrats, but knowing that there is a Grand Vizier Ibrahim and not knowing that there is a caliph Suleiman, but the Grand Vizier is indeed still capable, especially the soldiers who fought with him, and even scolded the Sultan of Mystra for the adulterous concubine, as usual, everything is the fault of the woman.

But fortunately, according to the official final statement, the plot to assassinate the caliph was finally foiled, the eternal traitor Ibrahim was crowned, the Sultan of Mystra and the great prince Mustafa have also been punished, all Mustafa's henchmen can be treated leniently, and they will never wronged a good person, which is a good thing for everyone, although some people will lose power, at least they can keep power.

But the matter did not end there, because a crook who claimed to be the Grand Prince Mustafa raised an army in Baghdad.

Since October, the whole of Istanbul has been in turmoil, with the chief preacher Mehmed, who has lost a hand, arresting people day and night, and then executing hundreds of people without trial.

Those who may not believe in the Lord of the Star and Moon are dead, but Bulsha, who absolutely does not believe in the Lord of the Star and Moon, is alive and well, after she dresses up, she lives in a luxurious hotel full of infidels in the port of Istanbul, the Ottoman Empire fights, under the banner of killing infidels, and there are few infidels under Mustafa's subordinates, Sultan Xurem has been busy with too many things recently, and at the same time, she didn't expect Bulsha to dare to return to Istanbul, so that her number one traitor not only eats and drinks every day, and a variety of gifts received softly.

The envoys of the various countries in the city of Istanbul, the royal merchants of the countries that were inconvenient to send envoys, and the intelligence brokers with suspicious positions, all of whom needed her first-hand information, were now in a good mood as she lay comfortably on a chair with a piece of lamb full of power on her plate, and looked out over the depressed streets from her balcony.

"You're having a good day." Sherlock walked into her room, envious of her comfort, "This is the meat of the Caucasus Mountains, the bighorned ferocious antelope?" ”

"The Georgian ambassador sent me." Bursa motioned for Shylock to take a piece of meat for herself, and then poured him another glass of wine, "A merchant who is very close to the Polish royal family has given me a good wine, taste it." ”

Sherlock took a sip, then nodded, "It's a boutique." ”

This evaluation is actually not high.

Bulsha didn't care, she began to eat nutritious mutton: "Polish wine is at this level, the taste is not good, but it is still very good for promoting nutrient absorption, we drink, isn't it mainly to promote nutrient absorption, and their sincerity is still very sufficient." ”

Bursa gave Sherlock a money order from the Fugger Textile Society.

"Two thousand thalers?" Sherlock saw it and returned it to Bursha, which was her agency fee, "So what is his total bid?" ”

"Ten thousand thalers, buy a handwritten letter from Grand Prince Mustafa." This business could not be done between Austria and Poland, Poland could not trust Austria, but it could trust the traitor Bulsha of the Ottoman Empire, so she could make two thousand thalers, "if it can be proved that it was written after the Great Fire of Alexandria." ”

"You don't have to worry about that." Sherlock immediately took out a letter and handed it to Burtha, "Director Jones personally brought it back, and the letter written by the eldest prince on the ship, calling on the loyal ministers to clear the king's side." ”

Of course, the Kingdom of Poland has to be concerned about whether Baghdad is a real Mustafa or a careerist, and the appeal of the two is completely different. (To be continued.) )
